Frying Pan Bluegrass is first a band that is heavily versed in bluegrass music. Known for their driving sound and fast picked instrumentals, they revel in the bluegrass and town festival settings. A listener will hear a lot of the traditional influences on the band. They
often perform covers of classics from the likes of Bill Monroe, Ralph Stanley, and other first generation players. The band also enjoys the melodic fiddle tunes, the kinds of songs that get people wanting to get up and move a little with the music. They have arranged a lot of popular music and adapted some of it to bluegrass. Of course, they have a lot of their own original songs that have that progressive bluegrass music sound. Many festivals over the years have called upon the band to perform their coveted gospel sets.

This band also has a lot of experience playing private parties and weddings. Sets for those events are always specially designed to suit the people attending, the setting, and the crowd's desires. Oftentimes, wedding couples request that the band learn a certain tune for the event. Party sets become an interesting fusion of bluegrass, fiddle tunes like the Cotton Eyed Joe, and a mix of music where you can hear a little Irish or Celtic flavor. This Colorado band knows how to play John Denver.

Frying Pan Bluegrass has a special chemistry and friendship that shines through in their playing and singing. Hopefully, you'll be able to catch this excellent band in the near future.
